The reason for this is that most teams that have losing records at home .... aren't very good. No team that has blown more saves than it hasn't has ever made the WS either, but that's what the Rangers face. So history will be made one way or another.
Yeah... they iced their closer and are now one loss away from going home. (no, there won't be a suspension).
It was almost automatic for appeals to reduce the original suspension AND delay the start of suspensions.
That it did but it does seem unfair for MLB to go after Abreu on what was questionable when Garcia clearly went after Maldy and tried to go through an ump to do so.
Out here ejecting and suspending players based on ‘muh feelz’ He intended to buzz and hit Altuve! Dangerous!
Can’t sit on the bench? Talk about over reaction by MLB. What about suspending the horrible umpiring behind home plate?
Putting your hands on the umps (Garcia did it at least twice) used to be a pretty much automatic suspension.
Just a fine. Baker got fined as well. McCullers and Bush got fined and won't be able to sit with team for the rest of the series. What did those 2 do?
Maybe there is a rule about inactive players rushing the field that gets them an automatic punishment.
